About this manual

The BD8179MUV is a system power‑supply IC for TFT‑LCD panels that integrates a step‑up DC/DC converter, linear‑regulator controllers and multiple protection circuits in a single chip. It delivers the three voltages required for TFT panels – source, gate‑high and gate‑low – with minimal external components.

The document details electrical characteristics, absolute maximum ratings, pin functions, block diagrams, and recommended component selection for optimal performance. It also describes built‑in protection features such as over‑current, over‑voltage, under‑voltage lockout, thermal shutdown and short‑current protection.
